letra de strange marionette - marijke perry

(verse 1)
come gather round
come see the clowns
come meet the loneliest girl in town
mark how she moves
watch how she breathes
see how she looks just like you and me
but behind those beady eyes
there’s nothing inside
there’s no meat for the soul to latch on to
what’s she to do
with no master or muse?
what’s a doll with all her strings cut through?

(pre chorus)
oh, it keeps me up at night!

(chorus)
tell me, why i was content before i met you?
now all of my bеst laid plans fall through
because of you, my friend
don’t hold mе fast, ’cause you know it won’t last
just cherish this doll to the end

(verse 2)
why give her hope
at the end of her rope?
why give her water; you know she will choke
just give her paint
just give her thread
don’t give too much it will go to her head
’cause behind those beady eyes
there’s nothing inside
there’s no meat for the soul to latch on to
can’t she be good
made of paper and wood?
if she never dreams, she’ll never wish she could
(pre chorus)
oh, it keeps me up at night!

(chorus)
tell me, why i was content before i met you?
now all of my best laid plans fall through
because of you, my friend
don’t hold me fast, ’cause you know it won’t last
just cherish this doll to the end

(bridge)
and if you see her give her strange pirouette
will you bring roses for the marionette?
all that she wants is more love than regret–
i don’t want you to mourn for what isn’t gone yet!
